Asher drove the car and took Claire back home. Once they arrived in front of the house, his phone began to ring. He stared at the screen and said to Claire, "I need to see someone briefly; you can just go ahead.""Although our day didn't turn out exactly as we had planned, I still want to think I had fun," he continued."I had fun too," Claire said. "Although I ended up crying, at the very least, I sang, and it was an experience I had never gotten before.""I'm happy for you," he said. "So, alright, I'll see you later when I get back.""Okay," she replied. "Umm, you're going to see a girl? You said you want to see someone."He laughed. "Well, I know I said I'm a player, but no, this is business-related. If you want, I can tell you about it once I get back.""Oh, no, there's no need," she replied. "Just go ahead and do what you have to do. You can take my car, by the way.""Thanks for this," he replied.She came out of the car and went back home, while he drove away in her car.When she

Asher wanted to end his call with Vivian; however, she said, "Come on, Asher, don't be like this. Think about it, isn't it fate that brought us together? I mean, yeah, since we had a one-night stand, I've been trying to get through to you, and you haven't been taking my calls.But someway, somehow, we still met again. You know when Lucas kept speaking about his friend, Asher, it never occurred to me that it could be you.""Well, I could say the same," Asher replied. "When I heard about Vivian, I didn't think it could be you too because there are so many Vivians in the world. And considering the way Lucas spoke about you, I thought you were head over heels in love with him. So, I couldn't reconcile that Vivian with the girl I met that night. And you gave me the impression that you were single.""Yeah, because look at my relationship with Lucas; I've been practically single. Come on, that isn't the kind of love I want for myself; he's all bound up with Claire, and I'm planning on removi

That night, as she slept, Claire had a dream. She was wearing a wedding dress, and it was her wedding day. It was a ball gown, and she looked truly beautiful. Her father, mother, and brother were all present, along with many other people.She stood in front of her groom, saying her vows. She tried to see his face clearly, but she couldn't."I can't see your face," she said to him."But I am looking at you," he replied."It seems you're wearing a mask," she told him. "Take it off so I can look into your eyes while saying the vows.""Okay," the man replied. He took off the mask, and she gasped in surprise."Asher?"She quickly opened her eyes and looked around. She had spent the night at Asher's house and was on his bed."Oh, it was just a dream," she said to herself. Right at that minute, the door was pushed open, and Asher came in with a tray of food - rice garnished with chicken."Good morning, your highness. I thought about giving you breakfast in bed.""Aww, that's so sweet of you,

As she heard Asher and Lucas' voices from outside, Claire stood in front of the window, staring at them from inside. Although they couldn't see her, she could see them. She didn't understand why Lucas suddenly seemed so upset. She knew it wasn't about her and kept wondering.Meanwhile, Asher was enjoying this. Initially, he never wanted to rub it in Lucas' face, but after the way Lucas insulted Claire inside the house and kept making sarcastic remarks about her, he couldn't bear it anymore."I didn't want to say anything, Lucas, but why would you say I'm not your friend?" Asher said to him. "This is not fair. I just explained what happened to you. At the time, I was single, and I thought the girl in question...""No! Do not tell me this," Lucas interrupted."Listen to me, Lucas," Asher continued, "what I'm trying to say is..."Lucas charged at Asher this time and punched him in the face."How dare you? Okay, let's forget about everything else. Was there a need for you to bring this up

Lucas's words did not surprise Asher. The moment Claire had returned and told him about what Lucas tried to do at home, he suspected that this would be Lucas's next line of action."What exactly are you asking me to do?" Asher asked Lucas."I think you understand exactly what I am asking of you," Lucas replied. "I want my wife back, Asher. You've ruined my relationship with Vivian. You can claim that you didn't know what you were doing, you didn't know she was my girlfriend or whatever it was, but the fact still remains that that relationship is ruined because of you.""Go ahead, I have given up on Vivian. You can have her; she's all yours. But Claire? Leave her alone. Claire is mine; she loves me, and we both know that she has loved me for so long. She doesn't love you, Asher; she's just using you as a rebound. I am telling you this from one man to another. For the sake of our friendship, leave Claire alone. After all, I asked you to go after her, so now I am asking you to give me ba
